Even with templates you could split of declaration and implementation. That would help with reducing compile times at the cost of having the user explicitly instantiate the used variations in some central location.

The only case where the declaration of template functions/classes can be separated from definitions is in the rare cases where only a fixed and predetermined set of objects/values are used, thus enabling explicit instantiation.
